For a start, the lists that hardcore role-players snuggle up to for comfort have been ditched. Molyneux reckons that most people are overwhelmed by the number of inventory items in RPGs and only end up using a small proportion of the thousands of objects included in those games, because it's not worth developing RSI in their mouse wheel finger. As a substitute, Lionhead has swapped the information traditionally found behind a game-pausing menu and turned it into a physical space.
Hit a key and you'll be transported to your guild chambers, where you'll have a butler, voiced by the inimitable John Cleese, to guide you through your weapons and wardrobe while deliveringsome wry commentary. Apparently Cleese's character won't just be a series of canned comments, he'll be a fully fleshed out personality who'll comment on your adventures and decisions throughout the game.
There's also a war room with a living map that lets you observe the routines of the subjects in your kingdom. Did we say kingdom? Yes, we did. Halfway through Fable III you'll ascend the throne to rule over Albion, and be presented with some tough choices as part of that.
During your rise to power you'll be forced to make the kind of promises that wily politicians make in order to gain support. Once your royal buttocks are warmly ensconced on the throne, you'll have to start deciding how many of those promises you're prepared to live by. Similarly, your subjects will approach you with Judge Judy-grade quarrels for you to rule on, and it'll be completely down to you whether you release the accused or demand the forcible separation of their head from their body.
Adding gravitas to this interaction is what Molyneux calls the 'touch system'. Physical contact between characters is going to be an important mechanic in Fable III. If you send someone to the executioner it won't just be a case of waving your royal wrist and having the guards take them away. You'll be the one physically dragging them, kicking and screaming, to the chopping block. Of course the touch mechanic can be used for positive things - relationships between players and other characters will, apparently, take on a new more meaningful dimension as a result of these extra ways to interact with each other.
Not only can you drag someone to their death, but you can hold your daughter's hand as you walk through town. Things step up with the introduction of an entirely new continent and one that, from the hints that have been dropped so far, won't be friendly towards Albion.
We've only had scant glances at Aurora so far, blit it looks like a cross between Morocco and the Middle East - a stark contrast to the Ve Olde Englande vibe that Albion has grown from.
That's not to say Albion hasn't changed, there's a much more Industrial Revolution-inspired aesthetic this time. Similarly the people have changed. When you begin Albion is ruled by a tyrant, so the people are downtrodden and oppressed. Depending on how you rule, you can make fundamental changes to the world, such as closing factories and opening schools, and the people around you will reflect those changes, for good or bad.
This sounds awfully pretentious, but Fable has evolved beyond an RPG, to become a virtual society, ne that you'll have a profoundeffect upon. Add to that a fluid fighting system and moral choices and resultant physical changes and you have what promises to be a fascinating adventure. It was something of a surprise that a flagship Xbox title would arrive on the PC during a console war, but based on what we've heard so far we're glad to have Fable back. One of the additions PC players have missed since Fable last appeared on the noble maths cruncher is co-op.
Fable II on Xbox did include a co-op mode, but it was a bit bum. Fable III is the third title in the Fable series of action role-playing games. Fans new and returning will now embark on an epic adventure, where the race for the crown is only the beginning of your spectacular journey. Five decades have passed since the events of Fable II, and Albion has matured into an industrial revolution, but the fate of the kingdom is at peril.
In Fable III, you will be called upon to rally and fight alongside your people, ascend to the seat of power, and experience the true meaning of love and loss. The choices and sacrifices you make while fanning the flames of revolution, and then as you rule as King or Queen of Albion, will lead to an ever evolving world of consequences that will be felt across your entire land.
This sets the stage for unparalleled action and adventure that offers even more ways to fight and engage than ever before. Throughout your journey, you will encounter a colorful cast of characters that fans have come to expect from the off-beat style and humor in the Fable games. After determining whether these characters are your friends or foes, you will either join them or fight against them in explosive combat.
In your quest to plant the seeds of revolution, seize power and rule over your kingdom, the choices you make will change the world around you, for the greater good or your own personal gain. Who will you become?
You are free to decide which path to take. However, it is never known in advance what awaits you at the end of the chosen path. Do you want to become a guardian of order and an adherent of good so that the inhabitants of the kingdom glorify you, or vice versa - will you cross the line between good and evil in favor of darkness, instilling fear and horror in the hearts of others?
It's up to you, and only you! The game Fable III takes place half a century after the events described in the previous second part of the series. You will play as the child of the protagonist from the sequel. You will inherit the throne and rule Albion.
